    What a beautiful shot Hellcat. Awesome faded color effect. Is that post processing or "au-naturale"..? Saw it in your Dec. meet thread too, nostaliga heaven I tell you.

    I think this is the first non-digital entry in years! (AFAIK)

    Thanks!

    I did try to remove some of the dust/scratches, but it always seemed to take away from the original, so I left it as is. So I did Photoshop it, but only to rotate it because I scanned it in sideways.

    It's cool, Waughter- it's been a little slow, the comps have been on a kind of hiatus; only three entries in two months, we need all the entries we can get.

    Personally, I'm too afraid to set the comps up, I can't handle organizing a thread of that magnitude. It's daunting; I don't know where to begin.

    I have been wondering what might have happened to Timothy. If there were issues out of his control, or this is a hiatus he would return from after the holiday season. It has been a rough Winter back East.

    Hi everyone. I'm sorry I disappeared. I feel kind of bad about it.

    I'm fine, I've just been busy lately. I got a real 40 hour (sometimes more) a week job back in August and my free time evaporated. Somehow UCP fell by the wayside as things got busier and after a while it becomes easier to stay away than to try to get caught up.

    I can't even guarantee that I'm back now, but I'd like to try and fit UCP into my schedule again.

    Thanks Tim, just see what you can do, if you are experiencing problems in keeping up this schedule we could try to find an alternative solution.
